Most standard insurance carriers' homeowner packages cover the dwelling structure, separate structures, personal property, loss of use, personal liability and medical payments.
However, there are many different forms of homeowners type policies. If you have a basic, HO1 (ISO), then your property may very well not be covered.
The best thing to do is get a copy of your policy and check. If it is not covered, you should be easily able to find a carrier who will cover property as part of the policy.

Can you get homeowners insurance on someone elses property?
You must have an insurable interest to effect valid coverage. Property must be insured in the name of the owner. So if you want to buy someone else a policy for their property you can certainly pay the bill for some else's property insurance but you can not insure it in your own name. If you insured someone else's home in any name other than the legal property owner and it burned down or suffered some other loss, the Insurance company can not legally pay your claim simply because the property does not belong to you. They would also not have to pay the owner because he or she was not an insured on the policy. The proper way to insure it would be under the name of the legal owner, If you also have an insurable interest in the property, then your name can be added as a co-insured. Should a claim arise, the claim check would be issued under both names.
